47RE Valve Body 2000-2001, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the 47RE. Ships fast from the USA.
If your 2000 or 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 with the 5.9L Cummins is slow to engage after you shift into drive, bangs between gears instead of shifting smoothly, or has set a pressure or solenoid code, the part that is almost always at fault is the valve body. This is a remanufactured, bench-ready unit built specifically for the 2000-2001 47RE and backed by a 1-year warranty, so you are installing a known-good part instead of spending a weekend chasing the failure piece by piece.
Inside the 47RE, the valve body is the hydraulic control center that directs line pressure to each clutch pack and band, and on 2000-2001 trucks it works together with the electronic governor pressure solenoid and sensor to time every upshift and downshift. When the aluminum bores inside it wear from years of pressure cycling, the computer can no longer apply the clutches at the right pressure and the shift quality degrades.
A tired valve body and a failing governor pressure sensor can look almost identical from the driver's seat, so check governor pressure and scan for codes before replacing the whole unit. Our 47RE common problems and fixes guide covers the cooler-flow and switch-valve checks that separate a true valve body failure from a sensor, wiring, or cooler restriction issue on this transmission.
This unit is built specifically for the 2000-2001 model years of the 47RE. The 47RE changed its governor pressure sensor type and valve body casting more than once during its production run, so a unit built for 1996-1999 or for 2002-up will not drop straight in - confirm your build year against your old part, or reach out with your VIN, before you order. The full 47RE collection has the rest of the parts for this transmission if you are sourcing more than one piece.
Drop the pan, drain the old ATF+4, and change the filter at the same time as the valve body so contamination from the failed unit does not carry over. Torque the valve body and pan bolts to spec in the correct sequence, then run the adaptive relearn so the TCM relearns clutch apply pressures against the new unit. If the internal wiring harness or governor pressure solenoid on your old valve body was also damaged, replace it now - see our 47RE internal wiring harness and 47RE governor pressure solenoid. Keep the old valve body and solenoid until you have driven the truck through a full heat cycle - if a symptom returns, having the original part on hand makes it much easier to tell whether it was a valve body issue or something else in the circuit that needs a second look.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Yes - this remanufactured 47RE valve body carries a 1-year warranty.
No. The 47RE changed its governor pressure sensor type and casting more than once, so this unit is built specifically for 2000-2001 trucks. Confirm your build year before ordering.
Delayed engagement into drive or reverse, banging or flared shifts, torque converter shudder at cruise, and stored pressure or shift-solenoid codes.
ATF+4. Change the fluid and filter when you install the new valve body.
Yes - run the transmission's adaptive relearn after the swap so clutch apply pressures are relearned against the new valve body.
Remanufactured and bench-ready, not a new-production unit, built specifically for the 2000-2001 47RE.
